http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?89779-Official-Yamaha-Gen1-Mechanic-Training-Videos-So-Cool!=&highlight=venture+video Hmmm...link doesn't work...wait a few hours for our Admin to check it out.... But this link is for the videos I was talking about. Also, a member from Spain, "Nacho".... usually takes pics and posts them when he works on bike. I saw one of his pics about using the proper socket top turn the engine by hand (32mm)...using the big nut not the little one... david

Rodney, Search the archives. About two months ago (or so) one of us posted links for a Canadian series of videos on the 1st gen's. The second (#2) video has engine work and I think it includes the valves. Kind of old and grainy....but does give a pretty good idea. The manuals here are in pdf format. Almost all PC's will open them. Adobe Reader Download | Free PDF viewer for Windows, Mac OS, Android The only other avenue would be to search the archives for "valve adjustment". I would be really surprised if there isn't a post with pictures and more of one of our members doing a valve adjustment and documenting it for us.... Check back and let us know how you faired after this.... david

Any ideas...my dealer is still shaking head...no help. TIA, david
